Gibbus_DickusWell, I am sure I wrote a reply on a reddit post to a guy who advised me to use your config the same day I found out how good it was, because I remember closing the game after two matches to write that reply with joy. And that reply says 19 days ago.
So I would think that the version must have been 6.5.0-b9 (released 21 days ago) and not 6.5.0 (released 18 days ago) as stated on github. But can't be 100% sure about that.
So there's no point in trying out the older version now, it wouldn't work properly, right?
You should try out the older version to see if it's really because of a config update. If you get around the same performance as you get with the latest version, then it's an issue caused by something else we will have to figure out.

Gibbus_DickusSo I can run an older version constantly without updating the config? Because back then, after the new install I surely downloaded the most recent version, as I've been doing since. I thought you are supposed to do that.
As I can see now in the config archive on github, there was a new version coming out quite often around that time. Luckily, I know the exact date I used the first config - March 17, so I will try the older config preceding this date.
Thx for the tip!
Well no, this is just for troubleshooting to figure out why you're getting less FPS. If we know which version you got good FPS in, we can then isolate what change could have reduced your FPS.

MR_SLINCan't believe you watched the VOD, haha.
It was very fun to watch! :)
MR_SLINI liked comp performance but I didn't like seeing the blocks on the environment. Ended up going with comp quality plus modules for shadows and such.
comp shouldn't have blocky textures, it was probably some lingering issue with your config that should be fixed now that you set everything up. But I guess compquality is fine too, it just has a bit higher quality lighting and effects.

6.5.6 released with installation process improvements and bug fixes.
Gibbus_DickusHello, I have a slight problem with the mastercomfig. Few weeks ago, I almost gave up on TF2 but then found this config with decently easy install instructions and after installing the game and applying the comp preset, the game ran great. To put it clearly - before that, I was not able to use a sniper rifle or play scout because of the FPS, but with the config it was playable again (subjectively 2x faster and smoother). But then I tried the badgpu and badcpu addons to test if it can be further improved. It actually made it worse, so I deleted them and from that time I can't get the initial great performance I got from the comp preset alone that one time.
I tried the clean up method, I tried even reinstalling the game, deleting all TF2 folders from steamapps folder, and applying the config on the clean install as in the past. Well, I can see the difference in visuals (no ragdolls, etc.), but I'm just not getting the FPS I experienced when first applying the config weeks ago. What might be the problem?
BTW Is it okay when I change some crucial settings after installing the config (I need fast weapon switch, minimized hud, minimized viewmodel, hit sounds, ...) - does it cause problems to the config when I change these settings in the options afterwards?
Using Xubuntu 16.04, Lenovo B560 with Nvidia 310m card (340 proprietary driver).
Did you update the config at all? I might have messed something up for your system in a later version.
Also, it is fine to customize the config with personal settings.

beastieIs there any actual performance difference from using the VPK instead of just adding all the convars into an autoexec.cfg?
Yes, it includes some other custom files that aren't in the autoexec.cfg.

MR_SLINOne piece of feedback that I have is that the list of VPKs is super intimidating to a newcomer, and I had to have a couple folks on my stream walk me through selecting the right one. Once I had the right one selected, I couldn't quickly figure out how to install it. I know you have instructions posted with a header that says "Download and Install", but it'd be great if you called out explicitly that the VPKs literally run themselves and that you don't have to add anything do your autoexec to make it work
I'm working on a few gradual improvements to the config that should make the list of VPKs more organized and better explained.
MR_SLINIn conjunction with my first piece of feedback, it wasn't easy to tell that the VPKs were working. When I removed my custom.cfg, I'd see the mastercomfig echo in console on game start. When I added my custom.cfg back to my /tf/custom/slincustomstuff/cfg folder, the mastercomfig echo would disappear (and I checked my autoexec for a "clear" command). I'm still not even sure if the mastercomfig echo is supposed to disappear when I add a custom.cfg -- it'd be great if I saw the echo whether I ran a custom.cfg or not, and since I know you're reading the thread it'd be great if I got your confirmation here as well!
Since your custom.cfg is running, then mastercomfig would have to be running. Not sure why the console output is not there, though.
Also, I watched your VOD and I think comp would work better for you than compquality, since compquality enables shadows and some other extra effects while comp disables those and does not have blocky textures.
Finally, shaders on high runs better on modern mid to high end systems, which is why the config had it set to high. I would recommend comparing low and high and seeing which one works best for you!
MR_SLINAgain I know how much work went into making this as easy and seamless as possible, and it works swimmingly. Thanks again for doing this!
Thank you for the kind words and also, to answer your question that you asked on your stream, yes, I'm a she :)

FireStarwI've got a question about the upload rate generator, if we know we are also going to be streaming at the same time as playing, and therefore not all upload capacity is available for tf2 to use, should we subtract from our total upload rate?
For example, If I have an upload rate of 3.04 Mbps and I know I stream at 2400 kbps, should I subtract the "used" amount and input ~0.6 Mbps into the calculator?
Yeah that could be beneficial, but keep in mind that the generator already takes 80% of your upload rate.
IDKWIDAAHello, just a quick heads up, it seems that the scene_flush command used in the comp.vpk file at line 1831 (when opening the file in notepad++) can get you permabanned on SourceOP community servers.
Here's my ban report: http://www.sourceop.com/modules.php?name=SOPBans&o=id_details&id=51026
Here's the only other thing on the SourceOP forms that I could find about it: https://forums.sourceop.com/threads/88355-Unban-Request-SexyGreenFrog?highlight=scene_flush
That's unfortunate, as it improves performance. I'll comment it out.

6.5.5 released with bug fixes, networking enhancements and performance improvements.
fizzwhizThere is a typo, "packet_size_conversative". Also, what benefits are there of disabling console output for certain features, besides a less-cluttered console?
Edit: How was 96 determined as the optimal high decal count?
Thanks. In addition to less clutter, technically console output affect performance by a small amount.
96 was experimentally determined to give the best tradeoff.

rmmastercoms8 gb ramrmjust checked it, comanglia gives me smth around 124 fps and mastercoms maxperformance gives 122-123.What's your hardware, OS and are you using any addons?
GeForce 940mx
i5-6200u 2.3 Ghz up to 2.8 Ghz
Windows 10, no addons.
Ok, I will look into it. How did you measure your FPS? Also what version of mastercomfig did you use?
